Moss Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 He spelled 'Ray Allen' wrong. That's actually the first player I thought of when I read it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
borracho Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 went to the thunder/heat game yesterday and that was a great game to watch and almost playoff-like atmosphere. wish the outcome would've been different, but it was a lot of fun watching the back-and-forth of all the big stars making plays.

parisisstale Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I actually watched the 2nd half of Clippers/Bucks last night to watch the Blake Show and here their play-by-play guy utter his famous line "First team to 100 wins, it's the law!!!" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jules Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Blake Griffin is a freak, but can't shoot to save his life. Also, he looks like Hellboy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 Blake Griffin is a freak, but can't shoot to save his life. Also, he looks like Hellboy. He doesn't need to be able to shoot right now, that's for his later years when he has slowed down and lost some hops. Blake is not as "aesthetically pleasing" to watch as a Ray Allen but he is fun to watch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I think he was something like 3 for 12 from the free throw line last night. Had no chance on his outside attempts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Look at Derrick Rose this year vs. last year. He's a better three point shooter at the expense of everything between the rim and the three point line. His FG% from Also, with regards to Griffin, he would be more dangerous if he could shoot the jumper, but then it just wouldn't be fair. He would be unstoppable.

Also, I think he was something like 3 for 12 from the free throw line last night. Had no chance on his outside attempts. You are right, I was somewhat joking. But right now he seems to be able to do anything in the paint he wants. And his mechanics for shooting don't look that bad. I think that part of his game will develop just fine. In a few years when those shots start dropping he is going to be scary good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

His FG% from My point was he is a much better shooter this year, and defenders are honoring that, which has made him a better player. I don't care what any over-analyzed stats say.

Guest Jules Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 My point is that it has affected the way he is defended, which has made him a better overall player. Which is what would happen if Griffin could improve his shot. And I agree, if he does, it won't be fair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
